detecting when Windows customization is completely finished

Is there any way to tell when Windows customization for a clone is completely finished using the SOAP API?

The use case is that a Windows template is cloned with customization, and then the clone is itself cloned with customization before the sysprep and reboots have finished. This results is a broken VM.

Can the API detect this or is the only way to wait for a while and hope customization is finished? I have looked at config.tools.pendingCustomization and the events log but these seem to leave periods when an unfinished VM could be cloned.
